She was the cutest little flower ever. I miss her so much. #DogsOfMastodon #RIPTiaMarie
Timba found an abandoned baby mouse, & I am now a mouse mama. Apparently. If you need me, I’ll be putting a warm nest together for li’l Pip. #MiceOfMastodon
Today we lose our sweet li’l hairy snausage, Tia Marie. She’s the last of the Tiny OGs—the 3 Ts: Tibby, Tink, & Tia—& I don’t know what I’m going to do without her. My heart is breaking. I probably won’t be online for a while. #MySweetGirl #ChiweeniesOfMastodon #DogsOfMastodon #Loss
I blame my parents.
Here’s lookin’ at ya.
It’s fcking MIND-BOGGLING, that’s what it is. #WestPoint #IncoherentRamblingIdiot
This is Timba. She’s Belgian Malinois, Husky, & Shar Pei. She & her brother had survived parvo, but their mama hadn’t. I met her in a PetCo parking lot one Sat morning when I was just trying to go to Marshalls. Instead of buying flip-flops, I ended up adopting a GIANT puppy. She loves Mr. Boots w/ the heat of a thousand suns, & they’re so precious together. ❤️ /end #NationalRescueDogDay #DogsOfMastodon
This is Teddi. She is part pibble, part German Shorthair, & part pug. When she’s super happy or excited, she gets Krazy Pug Eyes, & it is hilarious. She & I utterly adore one another, but I think she adores my son even more. If she had her way, she’d do nothing but eat & snuggle. Oh—& lick my knees. She loves to lick my knees. I don’t know why. ❤️ #NationalRescueDogDay #DogsOfMastodon +
This is Toutou. She’d been at the shelter too long & wasn’t doing well, so they featured her on the local news one night. I was at the shelter when they opened the next morning. She’s about 10 now, neurotic af, insanely sweet & affectionate, & loves to be carried around like a baby. ❤️ #NationalRescueDogDay #DogsOfMastodon +

He (she?) died. I tried, but he was cold & dehydrated when he was found, so I knew he prolly wouldn’t make it. Poor little guy. 😢

@BootsChantilly

Thought and action counts; you saw the little critter and tried to help.

You were a big part of a short life, within that short part of your bigger one.

My sympathies.

@BootsChantilly
It was good of you to try. At least his last moments were spent in a better place than you found him.
@BootsChantilly Aww I’m sorry. It was nice of you to try, and to give it a more comfortable ending. 💕

@BootsChantilly

does that make you Miss Havisham? :)

@BootsChantilly How wonderful. I hope, that you will have beautiful times together.
